CLUSTER SERVICE QUICK ESTABLISHMENT METHOD, RELEVANT DEVICE AND SYSTEM

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of trunking services, and in particular, to a method for quickly establishing a trunking service and a related device and system.

BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of a long term evolution (Long Term Evolution, LTE) network, a trunking service has been implemented on the LTE network. On an LTE network, after a user equipment (User Equipment, UE) is attached to the LTE network, if there is no service request for a long time, the UE enters an idle (RRC_IDLE) state; and after a service request arrives, the UE initiates a radio resource control (Radio Resource Control, RRC) connection, so that the UE enters a connected (RRC_CONNECTED) state. In the RRC_CONNECTED state, a UE may choose to listen to a radio channel at some moments by using a discontinuous reception (Discontinuous reception, DRX) mechanism and enters a sleep state at some moments, so that power consumption of the UE can be reduced. When no service arrives for a long time, the network releases the RRC connection to the UE, so that the UE returns to the RRC_IDLE state; and in the RRC_IDLE state, the UE may listen to a calling channel and a broadcast channel according to a DRX cycle, where the DRX cycle is also called a paging cycle of the UE, and a value of the DRX cycle is generally at a level of seconds.

[0003] For a UE that needs to quickly initiate a trunking service, a transition time from the RRC_IDLE state to the RRC_CONNECTED state cannot meet a delay requirement for quickly establishing a trunking service.

[0004] 3GPP TS 36.321 v10.5.0 specifies in particular the LTE E-UTRA Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol. It describes in detail the mechanisms of Discontinuous Reception, and in particular the use of a short and a long DRX cycle, as well as the timer drxShortCycleTimer. This timer specifies the number of consecutive subframe(s) the UE shall follow the Short DRX cycle. When it expires, the UE transitions to the long DRX Cycle. US 2011/0134888 discloses that a user equipment (UE) determine to activate a data session. The UE configures a data session activation request message to include an indication of an association with communication sessions of given type (e.g.,delay-sesitive communication sessions), and then transmits the data session activation request message to an access network.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0033] The following clearly and completely describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Apparently, the described embodiments are merely a part rather than all of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0034] Technologies described in this specification may be applied to various communications systems, for example, current 2G and 3G communications systems and a next-generation communications system, for example, a Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM, Global System for Mobile communications), a Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA, Code Division Multiple Access) system, a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA, Time Division Multiple Access) system, a Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access) system, a Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA, Frequency Division Multiple Access) system, an Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA, Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access) system, a single-carrier FDMA (SC-FDMA) system, a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS, General Packet Radio Service) system, an LTE network system, and other communications systems.

[0035] In this specification, various aspects are described particularly with reference to a user equipment and/or a base station device and/or an evolved packet core network (Evolved Packet Core network, EPC) device and/or a PoC server.

[0036] The user equipment may be a wireless terminal. The wireless terminal may refer to a device that provides a user with voice and/or data connectivity, a handheld device with a radio connection function, or another processing device connected to a radio modem. The wireless terminal may communicate with one or more core networks over a radio access network (such as RAN, Radio Access Network). The wireless terminal may be a mobile terminal, such as a mobile phone (also referred to as a "cellular" phone) and a computer with a mobile terminal, for example, may be a portable, pocket-sized, handheld, computer built-in, or vehicle-mounted mobile apparatus, which exchanges language and/or data with the radio access network. For example, it may be a device such as a personal communication service (PCS, Personal Communication Service) phone, a cordless telephone set, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phone, a wireless local loop (WLL, Wireless Local Loop) station, or a personal digital assistant (PDA, Personal Digital Assistant). The wireless terminal may also be called a system, a subscriber unit (Subscriber Unit), a subscriber station (Subscriber Station), a mobile station (Mobile Station), a mobile terminal (Mobile), a remote station (Remote Station), an access point (Access Point), a remote terminal (Remote Terminal), an access terminal (Access Terminal), a user terminal (User Terminal), a user agent (User Agent), a user device, or a user equipment.

[0037] The base station device (for example, an access point) may refer to a device that communicates with a wireless terminal by using one or more sectors over an air interface on an access network. The base station device may be configured to mutually convert a received over-the-air frame and an IP packet and serve as a router between the wireless terminal and a rest portion of the access network, where the rest portion of the access network may include an Internet Protocol (IP) network. The base station device may also coordinate attribute management of the air interface. For example, the base station device may be a base transceiver station (BTS, Base Transceiver Station) in GSM or CDMA, may also be a NodeB (NodeB) in WCDMA, and may further be an evolved NodeB (NodeB, eNB, or e-NodeB, evolved Node B) in LTE, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0038] The EPC device can provide broadband access anytime and anywhere, and provide a variety of applications, so as to better meet users' requirements. This is common knowledge well known by a person of ordinary skill in the art, and is not repeatedly described in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0039] In addition, the term "and/or" in this specification describes only an association relationship for describing associated objects and represents that three relationships may exist. For example, A and/or B may represent the following three cases: A exists alone, both A and B exist, and B exists alone. In addition, the symbol "/" in this specification generally indicates an "or" relationship between the associated objects.

[0040] The embodiments of the present invention provide a method for quickly establishing a trunking service and a related device and system, thereby effectively reducing a delay for establishing a trunking service, and ensuring quick establishment of the trunking service. The following gives detailed description.

[0041] For ease of subsequent description, in the embodiments of the present invention, a service mode of a UE is divided into a common service mode and a trunking service mode. An LTE network system is used as an example. In a common mode, a UE can perform a common LTE service; and in the trunking service mode, the UE can initiate or receive a trunking service and can also respond to a common LTE service.

Embodiment 1

[0042] Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a method for quickly establishing a trunking service according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 1 is described from a perspective of a base station device (for example, an eNB). As shown in FIG. 1, the method for quickly establishing a trunking service may include the following steps:

101. A base station device receives indication information that a UE has entered a trunking service mode, where the indication information is sent by an EPC device.

[0043] As a possible implementation manner, the base station device may receive a bearer establishment request or a context modification request sent by the EPC device, where the request carries a quality of service class identifier (QoS Class identifier, QCI) parameter of a trunking service bearer, and the QCI parameter of the trunking service bearer is used to indicate that the UE has entered the trunking service mode.

[0044] As another possible implementation manner, the base station device may also receive a bearer establishment request or a UE context modification request sent by the EPC, where the request carries a trunking service identifier, and the trunking service identifier is used to indicate that the UE has entered the trunking service mode.

[0045] 102. The base station device responds to the indication information and creates an RRC connection with the UE.

[0046] As another possible implementation manner, the base station device may send an RRC connection reconfiguration request to the UE and receive an RRC connection reconfiguration completion response returned by the UE, so as to implement the RRC connection with the UE.

[0047] 103. The base station device responds to the indication information and generates radio resource connection configuration information including a DRX cycle.

[0048] As a possible implementation manner, the base station device may respond to the indication information and generate the radio resource connection configuration information including a first DRX cycle and a second DRX cycle, where the first DRX cycle is smaller than the second DRX cycle.

[0049] 104. The base station device sends the radio resource connection configuration information to the UE, so that the UE configures the DRX cycle generated by the base station device as a DRX cycle of the UE itself.

[0050] For example, when the DRX cycle generated by the base station device includes the first DRX cycle and the second DRX cycle, the UE may receive the radio resource connection configuration information that is sent by the base station device and includes the first DRX cycle and the second DRX cycle, and configure the first DRX cycle and the second DRX cycle as the DRX cycle of the UE itself.

[0051] When the UE is in the trunking service mode, the UE may automatically close or close, according to an instruction of the base station device, a discontinuous reception short cycle timer (drxShortCycleTimer), and use the first DRX cycle, so that power consumption of the UE can be reduced; and when the UE exits the trunking service mode (that is, the UE enters a common service mode), the UE may automatically activate or activate, according to an instruction of the base station device, the discontinuous reception short cycle timer (drxShortCycleTimer), and use the second DRX cycle after the drxShortCycleTimer expires, so that the common service mode of the UE can be restored.

[0052] In this embodiment of the present invention, the first DRX cycle is smaller than the second DRX cycle. Therefore, subsequently, in this embodiment of the present invention, the first DRX cycle is called a short DRX cycle, and the second DRX cycle is called a long DRX cycle. The UE is configured with both a short DRX cycle and a long DRX cycle, and the UE first uses the short DRX in the trunking service mode. Therefore, closing the drxShortCycleTimer can prevent the long DRX from being used due to expiration of the drxShortCycleTimer, so that power consumption of the UE in the trunking service mode can be reduced. After the UE exits the trunking service mode, the drxShortCycleTimer can be activated, and the long DRX is used when the drxShortCycleTimer expires, so that the common service mode of the UE can be restored.

[0053] 105. When the UE is in the trunking service mode, the base station device retains the RRC connection with the UE according to the radio resource connection configuration information.

[0054] As a possible implementation manner, in the method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 1, the base station device may send a discontinuous reception command of entering the trunking service mode (MAC Trunking DRX Command) to the UE, where the command is used to: when the UE is in the trunking service mode, instruct the UE to use the first DRX cycle and the drxShortCycleTimer.

[0055] In the method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 1, a base station device can continuously retain an RRC connection with a UE that is in a trunking service mode. In this way, when a new service arrives, service transmission can be directly performed, and the UE can perform service transmission without the need of transferring from an RRC_IDLE state to an RRC_CONNECTED state, so that a delay for establishing a trunking service can be reduced significantly and quick establishment of a trunking service is ensured.

Embodiment 2

[0056] Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a method for quickly establishing a trunking service according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. The method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 2 is described from a perspective of a UE. As shown in FIG. 2, the method for quickly establishing a trunking service may include the following steps:

201. A UE sends, by using an EPC device, indication information that the UE has entered a trunking service mode to a base station device, so as to trigger the base station device to create an RRC connection with the UE, generate radio resource connection configuration information including a DRX cycle, and send the radio resource connection configuration information to the UE.

[0057] As an optional implementation manner, the UE may send a bearer establishment request or a context modification request to the base station device by using the EPC device, where the request carries a QCI parameter of a trunking service bearer, and the QCI parameter of the trunking service bearer is used to indicate that the UE has entered the trunking service mode.

[0058] As another optional implementation manner, the UE may send a bearer establishment request or a context modification request to the base station device by using the EPC device, where the request carries a trunking service identifier, and the trunking service identifier is used to indicate that the UE has entered the trunking service mode.

[0059] 202. The UE receives the radio resource connection configuration information that is sent by the base station device and includes the DRX cycle, and configures the DRX cycle as a DRX cycle of the UE itself.

[0060] For example, the UE may receive the radio resource connection configuration information that is sent by the base station device and includes a first DRX cycle and a second DRX cycle, where the first DRX cycle is smaller than the second DRX cycle. The UE may configure the first DRX cycle and the second DRX cycle as the DRX cycle of the UE itself.

[0061] 203. When the UE is in the trunking service mode, the UE retains the RRC connection with the base station device according to the radio resource connection configuration information.

[0062] In this embodiment of the present invention, when the UE is in the trunking service mode, the UE may automatically close or close, according to an instruction of the base station device, a discontinuous reception short cycle timer (drxShortCycleTimer), and use the first DRX cycle, so that power consumption of the UE can be reduced; and when the UE exits the trunking service mode (that is, the UE enters a common service mode), the UE may automatically activate or activate, according to an instruction of the base station device, the discontinuous reception short cycle timer (drxShortCycleTimer), and use the second DRX cycle after the drxShortCycleTimer expires, so that the common service mode of the UE can be restored.

[0063] In the method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 2, a UE can continuously retain an RRC connection with a base station device when the UE is in a trunking service mode. In this way, when a new service arrives, service transmission can be directly performed, and the UE can perform service transmission without the need of transferring from an RRC_IDLE state to an RRC_CONNECTED state, so that a delay for establishing a trunking service can be reduced significantly and quick establishment of a trunking service is ensured.

Embodiment 3

[0064] Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a method for quickly establishing a trunking service according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. The method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 3 is described from perspectives of a UE, a base station device (eNB), an EPC device, and a PoC server. As shown in FIG. 3, the method for quickly establishing a trunking service may include the following steps:

301. After entering a trunking service mode, a UE sends a trunking service registration request to a PoC server, so as to enable a trunking service.

302. The PoC server sends a notification that the UE has entered the trunking service mode to an EPC.

303. The EPC sends a bearer establishment request to an eNB, where the bearer establishment request carries a QCI parameter of a trunking service bearer, and the QCI parameter of the trunking service bearer is used to indicate that the UE has entered the trunking service mode.

[0065] The foregoing steps 301 to 303 achieve an objective that the UE sends, by using the

[0066] EPC device, indication information that the UE has entered the trunking service mode to the eNB.

[0067] Referring to Table 1, Table 1 lists a correspondence between a QCI parameter and a service type. After receiving the bearer establishment request sent by the EPC, the eNB can identify, according to the QCI parameter (QCI = 10/11) of the trunking service bearer, that the UE is in the trunking service mode.

304. The EPC returns, to the PoC server, a response 200 OK to the notification that the UE has entered the trunking service mode.

305. The EPC receives an acknowledgement message ACK sent by the PoC server.

306. The eNB sends an RRC connection reconfiguration request to the UE.

307. The eNB receives an RRC connection reconfiguration completion response returned by the UE, so as to implement an RRC connection between the eNB and the UE.

308. The eNB returns a bearer establishment request completion response to the EPC.

309-310. If there is no service transmission for a period of time, the eNB sends a command (MAC DRX Command) of entering a discontinuous reception state to the UE, so as to command the UE to enter a DRX state.

311. When the UE is in the trunking service mode, the eNB continuously retains the RRC connection with the UE regardless of whether there is service transmission, and does not release radio resources.

312. After exiting the trunking service mode, the UE sends a trunking service deregistration request to the PoC server, so as to close the trunking service.

[0068] In this embodiment of the present invention, when the UE is inactive for a long time, step 312 may not be performed, and the PoC server automatically initiates step 313.

313. The PoC server sends a notification that the UE has exited the trunking service mode to the EPC.

314. The EPC sends a bearer release request to the eNB.

[0069] In the method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 3, an eNB can continuously retain an RRC connection with a UE that is in a trunking service mode. In this way, when a new service arrives, service transmission can be directly performed, and the UE can perform service transmission without the need of transferring from an RRC_IDLE state to an RRC_CONNECTED state, so that a delay for establishing a trunking service can be reduced significantly and quick establishment of a trunking service is ensured.

[0070] Referring to FIG. 4, FIG. 4 is a flowchart of a method for quickly establishing a trunking service according to Embodiment 4 of the present invention. The method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 4 is described from perspectives of a UE, a base station device (eNB), an EPC device, and a PoC server. Different from the method shown in FIG. 4, in the method shown in FIG. 4, an EPC may modify a UE context by using an S1 interface to carry a trunking service identifier, where the trunking service identifier is used to indicate that the UE has entered a trunking service mode. As shown in FIG. 4, the method for quickly establishing a trunking service may include the following steps:

401. After entering a trunking service mode, a UE sends an NAS message to an EPC, where the NAS message is used to notify the EPC that the UE has entered the trunking service mode.

402. The EPC sends a context modification request to an eNB by using an S1 interface, where the context modification request carries an extended trunking service identifier TrunkedUEFlag=true that is used to indicate that the UE has entered the trunking service mode.

404. The eNB returns a context modification request response to the EPC.

405-406. If there is no service transmission for a period of time, the eNB sends a command MAC DRX Command to the UE, so as to command the UE to enter a DRX state.

407. When the UE is in the trunking service mode, the eNB continuously retains the RRC connection with the UE regardless of whether there is service transmission, and does not release radio resources.

408. After exiting the trunking service mode, the UE sends an NAS message to the EPC, where the NAS message is used to notify the EPC that the UE has exited the trunking service mode.

409. The EPC sends a UE context modification request to the eNB by using the S1 interface, where the UE context modification request carries a UE exiting trunking service identifier TrunkedUEFlag=false that is used to indicate that the UE has exited the trunking service mode.

410. The eNB releases the RRC connection with the UE, and configures, for the UE, a long DRX cycle in a common service mode.

411. The eNB returns a UE context modification request response to the EPC.

411. The UE enters the common service mode. If there is no service transmission for a period of time, the eNB commands the UE to enter the DRX state. If there is no service transmission for another period of time, the eNB releases air interface resources.

[0072] In the method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 4, a UE in a trunking service mode can continuously retain an RRC connection with an eNB. In this way, when a new service arrives, service transmission can be directly performed, and the UE can perform service transmission without the need of transferring from an RRC_IDLE state to an RRC_CONNECTED state, so that a delay for establishing a trunking service can be reduced significantly and quick establishment of a trunking service is ensured.

Embodiment 5

[0073] Referring to FIG. 5, FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a method for quickly establishing a trunking service according to Embodiment 5 of the present invention. The method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 5 is described from perspectives of a UE, a base station device (eNB), an EPC device, and a PoC server. Different from the method shown in FIG. 4, in the method shown in FIG. 5, an eNB can configure, for a UE, both a short DRX cycle used in a trunking service mode and a long DRX cycle used in a common service mode, so that in the trunking service mode, the UE works in a short DRX cycle state all the time, and in the common service mode, the UE can first work in the short DRX cycle state and then switch to a long DRX cycle state. As shown in FIG. 5, the method for quickly establishing a trunking service may include the following steps:

501. After entering a trunking service mode, a UE sends an NAS message to an EPC, where the NAS message is used to notify the EPC that the UE has entered the trunking service mode.

502. The EPC sends a context modification request to an eNB by using an S1 interface, where the context modification request carries an extended trunking service identifier TrunkedUEFlag=true that is used to indicate that the UE has entered the trunking service mode.

505. The eNB returns a context modification request response to the EPC.

506-507. If there is no service transmission for a period of time, the eNB sends a command MAC DRX Command to the UE, so as to command the UE to enter a DRX state. Because the UE is configured with both the short DRX cycle and the long DRX cycle, the UE first uses the short DRX and then uses the long DRX after a drxShortCycleTimer expires. In the embodiment, the UE needs to automatically close the drxShortCycleTimer, so that the UE cannot automatically transfer from a short DRX state to a long DRX state in the trunking service mode.

508. When the UE is in the trunking service mode, the eNB continuously retains the RRC connection with the UE regardless of whether there is service transmission, and does not release radio resources.

509. After exiting the trunking service mode, the UE sends an NAS message to the EPC, where the NAS message is used to notify the EPC that the UE has exited the trunking service mode (that is, the UE has entered the common service mode).

510. The UE activates the drxShortCycleTimer.

511. The EPC sends a context modification request to the eNB by using the S1 interface, where the context modification request carries a UE exiting trunking service identifier TrunkedUEFlag=false that is used to indicate that the UE has exited the trunking service mode (that is, the UE has entered the common service mode).

512. The UE enters the long DRX state when the drxShortCycleTimer expires.

513. The eNB returns a context modification request response to the EPC.

514. The UE enters the common service mode. If there is no service transmission for a period of time, the eNB releases the RRC connection with the UE.

[0074] In the method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 5, a UE in a trunking service mode continuously retains an RRC connection with an eNB. In this way, when a new service arrives, service transmission can be directly performed, and the UE can perform service transmission without the need of transferring from an RRC_IDLE state to an RRC_CONNECTED state, so that a delay for establishing a trunking service can be reduced significantly and quick establishment of a trunking service is ensured.

Embodiment 6

[0075] Referring to FIG. 6, FIG. 6 is a flowchart of a method for quickly establishing a trunking service according to Embodiment 5 of the present invention. The method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 6 is described from perspectives of a UE, a base station device (eNB), an EPC device, and a PoC server. Different from the methods shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, in the method shown in FIG. 6, an eNB extends a discontinuous reception command of entering a trunking service mode (MAC Trunking DRX Command), which is used to: when a UE is in a trunking service mode, instruct the UE to use a short DRX and close a drxShortCycleTimer, thereby preventing the UE from using a long DRX due to expiration of the drxShortCycleTimer. As shown in FIG. 6, the method for quickly establishing a trunking service may include the following steps:

Step 601 to step 605 are the same as step 501 to step 505, respectively, which are not repeatedly described in this embodiment of the present invention.

606-607. If there is no service transmission for a period of time, the eNB sends a command MAC Trunking DRX Command to the UE, so as to instruct, when the UE is in the trunking service mode, the UE to use the short DRX, close a drxShortCycleTimer, and enter a DRX state. Because the UE is configured with both the short DRX cycle and the long DRX cycle, the UE first uses the short DRX and then uses the long DRX after the drxShortCycleTimer expires. In this embodiment, the UE needs to close the drxShortCycleTimer according to the command of the eNB, so that the UE cannot automatically transfer from a short DRX state to a long DRX state in the trunking service mode.

Step 608 to step 614 are the same as step 504 to step 514, respectively, which are not repeatedly described in this embodiment of the present invention.

[0076] In the method for quickly establishing a trunking service shown in FIG. 6, a UE in a trunking service mode continuously retains an RRC connection with an eNB. In this way, when a new service arrives, service transmission can be directly performed, and the UE can perform service transmission without the need of transferring from an RRC_IDLE state to an RRC_CONNECTED state, so that a delay for establishing a trunking service can be reduced significantly, quick establishment of a trunking service is ensured, an impact on a standard is minor, and system compatibility is good.
